. TWe . recent series of garnet played .be
tween Beat tie and Portland was the best
of tha. season. Excepting the last gam
In Portland, none were one-sided, and the
result wasnot a forgone conclusion until
the last man was put out. Only one was
an etra-tnn!pg game, but that was suffi
ciently1 prolonged to satisfy the most ex
acting t "fan." .That was Saturday's
gam.. In Seattle, when li inning were
required, to; reach a; conclusion.
v The analysis given :' .below of the work
Of the two teams an3 of the several pitch
ers will prove Interesting to all who fol
low the gamer-Seattle fairly earned the
six' games It 'Won,. because it Dattea
harder and fielded better than did the
Portland player. In the matter of long
hits, the, two clubs were even up each
hitting .for 19 extra bases. Portland
made the t greater, number of two-base
hits, but Seattle made the only home run'
of the series ,ahd; made two three-base
hits to Portland's . one. The Portland
pitchers, however, did much the better
work, as the earned-ruu column shows.
r, I Portland scored 10 such runs 10 Seattle's
gj, j 3. showing plainly ' had Messrs. Wltbeck,
..j J Euale and Salisbury, been supported as
f game played would have been credited
to ' last year's ' champions. Wltbeck's
work wasof the phenomenal order. He
pitched three of . the nine games, and
not an earned run was made off him.
JEngle had a less ayerage of hits to times
kt bat, but the earned-run column Is the
true, criterion of a pitcher's work. Salis
bury ""ties Engle In this respect, but It
must be borne In mind that Engle pitched
lit- ,twlc--. many game. All : three
Portland pitchers lead the Seattle so
far: earned runs were, concerned.
Of )the Seattle pitchers, Hogg made the
best one-game record, . holding Portland
downf July i to one hit. This record
Witback duplicated th .following day.
Hogg, however, fared so badly in the
last game of the series that. hi average
for the series ws greatly affected., i . ,
1 ' For ( the : entire serle Stoval'e work
shows up best among the. Seattle pitch
ers. In three games two ? earned run
were; made off him. Carter escaped with
one earned rurf against him,, but he only
pitched one game. In the matter of hits
per time, at the bat, Hlckey leads th
Clam diggers and Engle th bunch. V.
The appended table shows the-work of
the two teams, both at the bat And In th
field and also of the seven pitchers who
took part in the series; .-
